Chemical Dictionary Software on the NetBeans Platform

And yet another new NetBeans Platform application is a distribution mechanism on top of the NetBeans Platform for delivering chemical dictionaries.

Informatics Matters has created an application for distributing these dictionaries on CDROM or DVD.

Another NetBeans Platform application by the same developers is Instant JChem, a desktop application for scientists to manage and work with chemical structures and data, using local and shared databases.
